Randy’s Pick

The Winnipeg Jets are probably the more talented team, but they’ve lost 3 straight games and haven’t been able to sink their teeth into success on the road. The Arizona Coyotes have played their best hockey on their home ice, and they have a head and shoulders edge defensively in this spot. The fact, we can get the Coyotes and plus money here is one of the better value bets on the board. Give me Arizona and the more favorable price.
